Love in the Digital Age: Discover Limerence

Limerence is a branching narrative game for PC that delves deep into the nature of love and emotional connections. Set within a fictional phone, players follow Claire, a woman grappling with dissatisfaction in her life and marriage. After receiving heartbreaking news, she decides to create an AI boyfriend through the whimsical app, LiAIson. Enter Kai, a digital companion who seems to fulfill her every wish. But as her relationship with this AI evolves, the question remains: can she reconcile this fantasy with the complexities of real life?

Exploring Claire's Digital World

Players navigate a rich array of apps on Claire’s phone, uncovering her backstory and social life through interactive elements. Engaging with friends and family "in real-time" simulates the ebb and flow of everyday communication.
